When your bananas hit peak ripeness, you have a few decent options: eat them as-is at their sweetest, freeze them for smoothies or get baking. And while there’s always classic banana bread, once you have tried these banana oatmeal<\/a> muffins<\/a>, we have a feeling that it will be a while before banana bread is the first choice again.<\/p>\n Filling, tasty and easy to make, these healthy banana oatmeal muffins<\/a> are a lovely light breakfast for those busy weekday mornings, or pair a banana<\/a> oatmeal muffin with all your favorite breakfast<\/a> foods as part of a hearty weekend brunch spread. Any way you enjoy these muffins, you’ll be glad you had ripe bananas on hand.<\/p>\n In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and nutmeg. Then, in a separate small bowl, beat together the egg whites, bananas, brown sugar, milk and oil. Stir this blend into the dry ingredients, mixing just until all is moistened, then stir in the pecans.<\/p>\n Coat muffin cups with cooking spray, then fill each cup two-thirds full with batter. Bake the muffins at 400\u00b0F for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool them for five minutes before removing the muffins from the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/p>\n Use different nuts:\u00a0<\/strong>Pecans are great here, but you can also use walnuts, macadamia nuts, cashews or other chopped nuts; a blend of nuts works, too.<\/p>\n Add chocolate chips:\u00a0<\/strong>For muffins that are more of a treat than a breakfast food, add semisweet chocolate chips when you mix in the nuts, leaving the rest of the recipe the same.<\/p>\n Use applesauce instead of oil:\u00a0<\/strong>If you dislike when muffins have an oily taste or texture, you can use applesauce in place of the oil.<\/p>\n Place the muffins in a paper towel-lined, airtight container and store at room temperature for up to four days or in the fridge for up to six.<\/p>\n Yes, these muffins will freeze well for up to four months. Ideally, wrap each muffin individually before freezing them. Thaw them in the microwave.<\/p>\n If you’re not a fan of cinnamon or nutmeg, you can leave them out. Just know the banana flavor will be much more pronounced if you do, which may well be to your liking.<\/p>\n A potato masher and a bowl work great, as does a simple fork. You can also pulse ripe bananas in a food processor. A blender is not a great choice, as it’s hard to retrieve all of the banana bits.<\/p>\n They are pretty healthy, yes. This recipe has just one gram of saturated fat, low sodium, and a bit of fiber and protein, so go ahead and enjoy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hearty, healthy and tasty, these

Banana Oat Muffins Tips<\/h2>
How do you store banana oat muffins? <\/h3>Store your muffins in an airtight container kept at room temperature. They should stay fresh for up to 3 days, whereas frozen muffins<\/a> can be kept for about 1 month.
Can you use other kinds of oats to make these banana oat muffins?<\/h3>Changing the oat will change the baking time, so be careful when choosing a substitute. Steel cut oats<\/a>, for example, take longer to cook than quick-cooking oats, which may result in you overcooking your muffins. Regular rolled oats are ideal for baking, making them your top alternative for this recipe. However, for the best results, try to stick with quick-cooking oats. Here's more on the different types of oats<\/a>. \r\n\r\n
How can you make mini banana oat muffins? <\/h3>To make mini muffins<\/a>, use a smaller-sized muffin tin and bake for 10-15 minutes instead of the 15-20 minutes this banana oat muffin recipe calls for.
